What is rganic Chemistry? Chemistry of Life (proteins, sugars, nucleic acids ) Based around the chemistry of carbon organic molecules possess carbon-carbon bonds a few other elements (mainly ) Concerns transformations (reactivity) and building (synthesis) of organic structures Serine 2 N C 2 C 3 7 N 3 C, 34%;, 7%; N, 13%;, 46%
What is rganic Chemistry? Carbon has unique properties Atomic Number 6 1s 2 2s 2 2p 2 Valence of 4 Mid-range electronegativity C-C and C- bonds are strong and unreactive provides solid scaffolds C can bond to itself to metals to heteroatoms Geometrically flexible cabable of catenation forms chains, rings, multiple bonds.

General Drawing Concepts 1. Lines represent bonds 2. C is basis of structure (chains and rings of carbon atoms) carbon atoms assumed to be at intersections and ends of lines C bonds omitted (hydrogen count assumed from valence) All heteroatoms shown (+ s bound to heteroatoms) 3. Valence 4 for C 3 for N 2 for 1 for, Cl, Br, I 4. Geometry depends on hybridisation Indicate bond angles (~120 or 180 )

Showing Bonds in 3D When you need to show the 3D shape of a molecule Bonds in the plane of the paper: C Bonds coming towards you: C Bonds going away from you: C For example C 4 : C
Summary You should now be able to 1. Understand the basis of drawing organic structures 2. Convert between a condensed molecular formula and a skeletal or line structure 3. Determine the formula of a molecule from its skeletal representation Next Lecture Bonding and Nomenclature
Appendix 2: ther Ways to Draw Space-Filling Representation: Ethanol C 2 5 C 2 6 C 2 6 Advantages: Disadvantages: Gives an indication of the extent of the molecule Indicates perspective (3-D image) Difficult to draw by hand requires computer Not obvious what elements are present Bond angles hidden Difficult to use for mechanisms
General Drawing Concepts 1. Lines represent bonds 1, 2 or 3 lines for single, double, triple bonds 2. C is basis of structure (chains and rings of carbon atoms) carbon atoms not shown assumed to be at intersections and ends of lines C bonds omitted (hydrogen count assumed from valence) All heteroatoms shown (+ s bound to heteroatoms) 3. Valence 4 for C 3 for N 2 for 1 for, Cl, Br, I 4. Geometry depends on hybridisation Indicate bond angles (~120 or 180 ) 5. In condensed formulae, atoms bonded to a C atom are listed after it
Appendix 2: ther Ways to Draw Line Representation: Ethanol C 2 5 C 2 6 Advantages: Disadvantages: Quick to draw Bond angles and heteroatoms represented Determining molecular formula takes time for beginners C 2 6
Appendix 2: ther Ways to Draw Traditional Representation: Ethanol C 2 5 C 2 6 C C C 2 6 Advantages: All atoms and bonds drawn All molecules represented as 2-D images Disadvantages: Bond angles are not 90 0 Tedious to draw
Appendix 2: ther Ways to Draw Condensed Molecular Formula: Ethanol C 2 5 C 2 6 C 3 C 2 Advantages: Disadvantages: C 2 6 Indicates connectivity Easily written Enables naming of the constitutional isomer Does not represent stereochemistry where applicable No indication of molecular shape Again slightly tedious
Appendix 2: ther Ways to Draw Structural Formula: Ethanol C 2 5 C 2 6 Advantages: Disadvantages: Wedge and hash bonds indicate 3-D structure Atoms and bond angles represented Enables accurate naming of the molecule Permits advanced mechanistic understanding Takes time to draw C 2 6 C C
Appendix 2: ther Ways to Draw Ball & Stick Representation: Ethanol C 2 5 C 2 6 Advantages: Disadvantages: Bond angles represented Some indication of space occupied Stereochemistry indicated where applicable Type of atom not specified Requires computer/models C 2 6
